Abstract
Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) are popular photocatalysts that utilize solar energy to generate hydrogen peroxide and evolve hydrogen because of their intrinsic porosity, robust framework, and excellent structural regularity. Benzothiadiazole-based donor-acceptor type COFs, PC-NB and PC-NPB, having distinct π -bridges, influence electron transport and photocatalytic efficiency. Using degree-based topological indices and their entropy analysis, this study attempts to theoretically investigate the covalent organic frameworks PC-NB and PC-NPB to evaluate the structural complexity and stability. By offering an organized method for analyzing molecular graph features, edge partition facilitates the computation of topological indices. The calculated topological indices of the COFs are compared in detail and presented graphically. PC-NPB consistently shows higher values across nearly all degree-based topological indices, suggesting that it has a more connected structure. Additionally, lower entropy values in PC-NB indicate a higher degree of topological regularity and symmetry, which are traits frequently associated with enhanced rigidity, crystallinity, and thermodynamic stability.
